it cost the taxpayers half a billion to build the commuter rail tunnel and the maximum speed allowed is about 40mph. seems like they got ripped off a bit. Then again Reading Terminal operated just fine on its own for over a century but sure lets close it to build a slow ass tunnel. it takes the train 23 minutes to go from Jefferson Station to 30th. it takes the EL 6 to go from 11-30th. Denver uses a slightly different variant of the Silverliner Vs.
Good Job

How come the EMU's don't have bells? They run on regular mainline so you'd think that would be a requirement of safety regulations.
How do you think they do in Europe, and on the other continents? Trains don't have bells, but it doesn't mean there are more accidents!
Nice
Thanks
